...
The Board of Peace will report its financials to its own executive board, which is made up of Trump administration officials and other advisers, at a time deemed appropriate, the official added.

Justice matters.
(10,108 posts)It's in that name. A bunch of gangsters took over to fill their pockets. It was not tough to do. Religious propaganda and made-up lies about everything like a reality-teevee show.
Everybody should use it: The Republicrooks Party, a.k.a. the Guardians Of Pedophiles (GOP).
